The two victims killed Thursday in a mass shooting at Florida State University (FSU) have been identified as Robert Morales and Tiru Chabba, beloved family men and food service employees.

Morales and Chabba were among eight people wounded during the Tallahassee shooting just before noon. Hospital officials confirmed the six other victims are expected to make a full recovery. 

Phoenix Ikner, 20, an FSU student and stepson of a Leon County Sheriff’s Office deputy, has been identified by authorities as the suspect. He was shot by Tallahassee police officers after refusing to comply with commands.
